I am still in the hospital and haven't had anything to eat yet, just ice chips.  I had my surgery on Tuesday at lunch time.  I had an x-ray yesterday that showed that my new stomach is swollen and won't let anything pass through correctly.  Did anyone have this problem when they got the Sleeve done?

It sounds Scary, Tara.  The big question is WHAT is causing the swelling?

I also had mine on Tues around noon.  I was fine after the surgery but I threw up all day yesterday and was so nauseous I couldn't stand even ice chips.   They changed my meds three different kinds of anti spasmodic and anti nausea.  Today I am better but still having a hard time getting enough fluids down.  I jist keep sipping along.  Hopefully it will get better for both of us soon.  I haven't taken any pain meds since Tues night because I felt like they might be contributing to the nausea.

I didn't have that, but I did have a different complication and was stuck in the hospital for a week.   It stinks!  I hope you are feeling better soon.
